A savage duel on Onigashima reaches its end as Jinbe endures Who's-Who's saber-tiger onslaught and his prodding questions about the fabled Sun God Nika, then answers the insults flung at the fish-men with one decisive blow.
Bearing Tama, Nami, and Usopp across Onigashima, Speed dashes ahead while Gazelleman and Daifugo trail behind, the headliners shielding the group and pledging to bring Komachiyo back. When Tama calls them all friends, Zeus pleads to serve Nami once more; she turns down every demotion he proposes until his apology earns him the rank of partner. The CP0 agents estimate roughly two thousand soldiers have switched sides through Tama's power, and decide their only real task is verifying Who's-Who's death for abandoning CP9.
Pressed by Jinbe over why he abandoned the World Government, the saber-tiger sidesteps the question and sneers at Luffy, claiming the captain let him down against Kaidou. As the Heart Pirates labor to revive Luffy, Jinbe swears to bring Who's-Who down and fights as the Straw Hats' helmsman, slipping and countering the ceaseless strikes. Who's-Who then recounts his prison days, when a guard mockingly bade him pray to Nika, a legendary figure said to liberate slaves. Desperate, he came to believe, and now he probes Jinbe, linking the tale to the former enslavement of the Sun Pirates and fish-men and warning that the guard who spoke of Nika was put to death.
When Who's-Who demands what Jinbe knows, Jinbe seizes his arms and says he has nothing for him. He snaps the agent's fingers, pins his tail, and shatters both Who's-Who and the surrounding arena with one strike, leaving him slumped against the wall beneath a parting warning that anyone who digs into history must brace for what surfaces.
Zeus is named Nami's partner rather than her attendant. Who's-Who tells of learning about the Sun God Nika in prison and questions Jinbe over the fish-men's history of slavery. Jinbe refuses to share a word and crushes Who's-Who with one overwhelming punch, destroying the arena around them. The Heart Pirates keep working to revive Luffy.

A Wano Country Arc episode, it debuts a handful of techniques for Who's-Who and Jinbe and gives Nika a first silhouette.
